I would like to join but some of my items are knit can I list those? My crochet project is on another cal. To start with I have some wrist warmers to make, crochet. I have two hats to make, knit. And I need to make something for my brother. I think knit arm warmers but I am not sure. Maybe a crocheted dragon.

Yay! I finished my list I'll try to get some pictures taken as I get everything wrapped. I just have to do it when all my "helpers" are in bed, lol. My littlest ones aren't really great at keeping secrets.

OK, I am late to the party but I have a small list!

 

1) Finish lapghan to donate to a VA facility through Soldier's Angels by November 15th (I have finished the first skein with five more to go- not including the boarder)

 

2) A wash cloth to go with a special bubble bath for a dear friend

 

3) swiffer shrugs for a 'green' neighbor

[MiniBooger]

Way to go!

 

I have a week off, so I plan on knocking a whole lot off my list!

Mini- Have fun with you week of crochet!

 

Jessicagil- Great job on finishing some things! That afghan came out really nice

[christinanthemum]

Here are pictures of the completed Hello Kitty purse (hopefully). This was the first time I crocheted a purse...and the first time lining one. I just have to say that it came out really great and I am really proud of myself. (Sorry if I am being too boastful:))

Absolutely wonderful!!! I'm impressed! You should be proud of yourself!

 

 

 

I finished the topsy-turvy, all I have to do is dig up the pattern I wrote a while ago and make sure it's well-written. Started scarf one and am... perhaps 1/5 finished? I had to stop for a few days due to vehicle problems and running stuff.

 

*sigh* Also, momma is down for the weekend, so that hinders things as well.

WOW looks like everyone moving along but, me. WTG on everyones projects. I have been doing a lot of little projects lately due to my wrist hurting a bit. But, hoping to get started back on a lot of my Christmas projects soon.

Working on the third skein in my VA lapghan!

[MiniBooger]

I'm cranking on 2 purses for gifts. These will be felted, but have 32 parts each (flowers, centers and leaves in addition to the purse and straps.) I have the two bags and straps done and am about halfway through the flower parts. I'm hoping to finish those up today so I can felt later this week. I have to felt in my mom's washer as my [new] washer does not provide enough agitation - dang new fangled appliances! lol

[ratdog]

Fourth skein (of 6) started on the VA lapghan!! My husband and two boys were camping all weekend. Lots of uninturrupted crochet time on the couch watching QVC countdown to Christmas!

[Appliejuice]

I finished one of my fish bags. I'll post a picture of it in the Show and Tell. I am trying to finish a Fall Afghan, so I can actually work on my Christmas list. LOL

Some things happened and I found out my sister in law would not let her kids use the blankets I made. So the one I got done for her son is going to charity. I am frogging the one for her daughter & making it the correct size according to the pattern. It upsets me as she said it would be a great idea. Her loss not mine.

 

1) 3 christmas stockings (same pattern different ways so no one fights - in my dreams ) 1 done! Lookie here!

2) xmas blanket for xmas morning (put it together with all them square I have been getting) 1/2 way done. Need 3 more squares. Got glow in the dark yarn to border the squares with & am getting more yarn to make more squares.

3) decorations (at least 3 for each boy) Got 9 of 9 done - just need to stiffen them! Keeping track of them here.

4) Piggie potholders for my mom.

5) scarf for my kids great grandma

6) christmas tree skirt - lookie here for progress.

That is so sad, why on earth wouldn't she want her children to use your blankets?

Well, I have some pretty bad news. I am going to have to be a watcher in this CAL for the next 6 weeks at least. I broke my wrist and I dont think I will be able to crochet, unless I learn to do so with my right hand:think. Dont worry though, I will keep watching and seeing how great your gifts are turning out. Consider me the Cheer Squad:cheer

[ratdog]

OH Dear PP! I am so sorry to hear about the injury.

 

Sending positive thoughts for your speedy recovery!!

I am so sorry I hope you recover really quickly.

[jessicagil]

The DH & I are seperating. We are still together but not together - not together till he learns he is 37 & not a 9 year old. Does that make sense? Since then she's been a regular twit to put it nicely.

Oh my. I do hope that 6 weeks go fast. I'd go nuts.
